About €10 billion will fund missing links for gas and LNG and oil infrastructure to stop shipments from Russia.
All the rest will go into speeding and scaling up the clean energy transition.

I thanked Prime Minister @kishida230 for the admirable solidarity Japan showed by diverting some of its LNG supplies to Europe.

I welcome the strong stance Japan has taken on Russia’s aggression against Ukraine.
Like the EU, Japan understands what is at stake here.

Not just Europe’s future.
But the future of a rules-based world order.
